Nothing compares to that music right there

[@scottfleming2166]

Big Bill was a national treasure, talented beyond measure

[@thomaslucas1012]

Big Bill had such an amazing touch!

[@fettigeredgar]

I think it's his thumb that causes this special sound!

[@LatrellMitchell-k1z]

Good blues music by big bill Broonzy good guitarists player of blues

[@hoisin75]

This is the grail - I think Big Bill was the most technically gifted of the great blues men. Incredible guitar player over a range of styles

[@geoffpaston9864]

I really love his 1928 stuff, and he's still brilliant 30 years later!

[@tonyparatore888]

Love Big Bill... 👍

[@666dynomax]

playing that like butter

[@donpattonjr]

Some really great fingerstyle of play by Big Bill Broonzy...🎶🙂

[@gracepethel9824]

OMG he was bad ass yo! Those ol blues guys were loaded with talent and you know if you like any kind of music pretty much, you like blues by default

[@CookieButter13]

😮 so strong and smooth 😮

[@chrisnelson9663]

Better sound than some of the 2024 Glastonbury I watched.

[@mbomboaimaim798]

Big Bill at his best playing and laughing......Turning a six string guitar into a Piano ...🤣🤣.

[@ClaudeBohls]

Keystone Karl approved with gusto

[@johngellard1187]

How does this compare to Robert Johnson?

[@ObeseCaligula]

So Eric didn't write this one either.

[@vestapolproductionsstefang578]

He never said he wrote this and in fact Eric has always credited the sources where he heard/learned a tune.

[@gavincunningham6422]

Ye haha

[@wesstevens]

No but he sure played it good

[@yeehaw3792]

Niether did the hundreds of other blues men that covered this tune.

[@padsterblameme4822]

Far too musically interesting to be a Clapton song.
As Captain Sensible once said, Clapton has one lick and he's been boring us to death with it for 50 years.

[@xyrius]

I know that in theory Skip James was the best guitar player ever lived, but seeing Big Bill it's questionable.

[@greendesertgoddess]

Eric Clapton? Probably didn't. They all stole from the old Bluesmen!

[@yeehaw3792]

This song has been done by dozens of people. Its not thievery.

[@rocker8692]

The white man steals everything 😂

[@1claudiusgothicus]

black mans don't steal?
you ruin a good thing

[@trevorgwelch7412]

The guitar is slightly out of tune

[@CalijayOfficial]

It is, yet it sounds better than anything that has been in the top charts in this current age of advanced technology
